Abstract
The decline in marriage rates in the international community in 2020 as a result of Covid-19 has led to significant losses in the marriage industry in many countries. In addition to the problem of marriage rates, when a couple divorces, there may also be legal disputes over marital property, maintenance, or child custody. We propose a blockchain marriage registration system that combines Hyperledger Fabric and IPFS (Interplanetary File System) to address these issues. The contributions of our system include the use of smart contracts to avoid disputes, the use of multiple signatures to ensure the validity of prenuptial agreements, and the traceability and verifiability of data through the features of Hyperledger Fabric. Our system can provide a secure, convenient, and cost-effective method of registering marriages. The security and performance analysis shows the feasibility of this study in enabling online marriage registration agreements.
期刊介绍:
The impact of computers has nowhere been more revolutionary than in electrical engineering. The design, analysis, and operation of electrical and electronic systems are now dominated by computers, a transformation that has been motivated by the natural ease of interface between computers and electrical systems, and the promise of spectacular improvements in speed and efficiency.
Published since 1973, Computers & Electrical Engineering provides rapid publication of topical research into the integration of computer technology and computational techniques with electrical and electronic systems. The journal publishes papers featuring novel implementations of computers and computational techniques in areas like signal and image processing, high-performance computing, parallel processing, and communications. Special attention will be paid to papers describing innovative architectures, algorithms, and software tools.
